Ziki, Demi & Tolu of The Tao of Otaku chopped it with Grey Williamson about his ‪‎sci-fi‬ horror‬ comic series Val-Mar: Prince of the Damned and his creative journey.

Grey is vastly experienced and has been through so many different walks of life. Very much like Val-Mar, Grey’s creative journey is also somewhat of a puzzle and on today’s episode we explore every piece of that puzzle.
